Targets and KPIs at a Glance

Within the four sustainability pillars, the REWE Group has defined key figures as well as clear targets. This allows progress to be quantified and measures to be adjusted if necessary. The most important ones are presented below. As the extraction of raw materials and the processing of products are highly relevant with regard to sustainability criteria, they are summarised separately.

¹ Shares excluding near- and non-food, tobacco and alcoholic beverages. ² New calculation basis: Beginning in 2022, all flowering areas ever created or enhanced since the project began will be reported. These are perennial and annual flowering areas, some of which are not permanent. In 2022, over 500 hectares were still preserved. ³ Fish products containing only one type of fish and excluding convenience, snacks and ready meals. ⁴ Self-service and service counter. ⁵ Sausage (self-service & service counter), incl. canned, frozen and convenience products with a meat content of more than 50 per cent, excl. foreign specialities. ⁶ These articles comprise the product groups chocolate and chocolate bars, pralines, Easter and Christmas sweets. Chocolate hazelnut spreads and instant cocoa cannot be assessed automatically as part of this survey, which is why these products do not fall within the reporting scope. ⁷ The purchase volume is the quantity of sales units of private label products purchased. ⁸ Where possible, at least 20 per cent recyclate from the yellow bag. ⁹ This is an adjusted target in the 2021 reporting year. It became apparent that the REWE Group would reach its previous target of a 25 per cent recyclate content as early as 2021. ¹⁰ This target also applies to toom Baumarkt DIY stores in Germany, but is not included in the data collection.
